Bug Description
I'm not hearing any alarm (audio sound) when there's a trigger (e.g., Timer reaches zero).
I see in the log:
No alarm sound -- utils.vala:391: Error playing sound: Invalid argument
$ gnome-clocks --version
Clocks 3.36.2
This is gnome-clocks installed on Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS with snap, not apt.
$ snap list
Name Version Rev Tracking Publisher Notes
gnome-clocks 3.36.2+git4.0aaab08 261 latest/stable canonical✓ -
After this issue, I uninstalled the snap and installed gnome-clocks package using apt. The sound played just fine. I then removed gnome-clocks and re-installed the snap, and it worked as before (no sound).
This was reported by someone else, upstream:

"So apparently all is needed is to rebuild gnome-clocks using the latest vala."

I see now that this is a duplicate of bug #1878361
but since this has been fixed, but the snap has not, I'm not sure if this ticket should get markted as a duplicate and closed, or if it should remain open until the issue with the snap is addressed.
On 2020-06-09: Update Released:
